Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
The home was not clean, there was ants in the kitchen, we killed several roaches, the blinds were all dirty. The pictures made the house seem so nice, with tons of outdoor furniture and a bbq pit, which is why we picked the property, and bought 200 dollars worth of steaks and arrive to see that there is no bbq pit and hardly any outdoor seating. Pretty disappointed with the property and the condition it was in. The bathroom downstairs was leaking water we kept mopping up. Half the appliances in the pantry didn’t even work so it was difficult to cook to begin with! Definitely won’t use this company again.

Good place to stay and close to island
This place is a good place to rent it is about 10 minutes away from the island. It is near Heb and Walmart. Great location for staying close by the beach.
The house was very close to the beach and spacious enough to accommodate my entire family. The weekend was great, we were all very comfortable and the kids had a blast with the back patio pool.
Check in had an issue as the battery was dying on the keypad- we were able to get it resolved fairly quickly. Great AC, pool fantastic (could use more than 4 chairs outside though), kitchen nice but just know no basic spices (salt/pepper, etc), no mixing bowls, no sharp knives- it otherwise it was nice! Beds are very comfortable- hot showers with great water pressure- would consider staying here again as location and pool were great.

Great location without the Padre traffic and hustle
It was 25 mins from our daily destination at Loop Farms Whitewing fields. Had b’fast burritos at El Papas around the corner one morning… best fresh homemade flour tortillas I’ve ever had.!! Convenient to Padre Island and Brownsville. All the shopping amenities you need close by…solid spot!
Good location, place does need a refresher. Everything was fine but we can see the trim starting to lose it's allure.

It was okay.
The home has several things that need to be fixed. Backyard is not closed in so anyone can access back area. One table and four chairs out by pool. The space needs more lawn chairs and picnic table to utilize the massive deck. The grill was left with food in it from previous guests. If brining a family would bring own pots and pans as there are not many to use. By the 4th day the pool needed to be shocked or cleaned as it started turning green.

We will follow up with the appropriate parties regarding your experience to discuss preventative measures and ensure the continued enjoyment of our future guests.
We apologize for the inconvenience and hope we can host you again!
Was very run down. Less accommodating then described. Missing lots of house hold items for a long stay. MOLD IN HALLWAY. front and back door barely useable. Railing on stairs and patio very loose. The beds was worse then hotel beds. Yard needs maintenance. House sleeps 12 but ONLY have seating for 4 on patio. Email stated to use dishwasher but there wasnt one available. Wouldnt recommended long period stays.

Rebecca, we are disheartened to read that you experienced issues that kept you from fully enjoying your stay. We apologize for any areas you felt needed some TLC and shared your comments with the local manager. They assured us that the home was checked and no mold was found in the interior or exterior. Additionally, the doorknob was repaired on one of the doors and we are sorry for any inconvenience this caused. Our landscaper cuts the grass twice per month and the rails were checked and found to be in good order. To clarify, a dishwasher is not an amenity for this home and we regret any disappointment. We hope you will allow us the chance to provide you with a truly exceptional vacation experience in the future.

Lots of problems
Had lots of problems, wasn't very clean, lots of long white dog hairs, the power in the kitchen and pantry kept cutting off - would get reset and cut-off 10 minutes later, the boards around the pool were loose or coming up, have a list of 15 things wrong besides the cost of the rental was overpriced!
